3. Comments and telegrams on the issue of repairing airports in various localities.

26 November and 5 December 1949).

1) Rong Zhen, Yalou:

The construction of airports in various localities is a major event, and it must be handled conscientiously, and only indispensable money can be used, and large budgets cannot be opened at will.

Mao Zedong. November 26.

2) East China Bureau and East China Military Region, North China Bureau and North China Military Region, Central China Bureau and Central China Military Region, Northwest Bureau and Northwest Military Region, Northeast Bureau and Northeast Military Region, and report to the Government Council *** Central Finance Committee Chen and Bo, and Air Division Liu, Chang, Wang, Wang Zhu Comrades:

According to Air Force Commander Liu Yalou and other comrades on 28 November: (1) The Air Force Command has just been established, and for the time being, it cannot take care of the total budget for planning the construction of airports throughout the country. However, we believe that all military regions and all levels of the country should mainly assign special personnel to protect and manage the existing airports and their existing equipment in various places, so that they will not be destroyed or stolen; At the same time, repairs can be carried out within the cost and manpower that each locality can afford (a part of the troops can be mobilized to participate). As for the major restoration of airfields in various localities, due to the current economic difficulties of the country, with the exception of East China, it is possible to put forward a plan when the Air Force Command has the strength to make the whole plan for this matter, and then proceed with it after it has been approved by the Central Military Commission. Otherwise, a state of absence will inevitably be formed. (2) In the case of East China, there is a difference, because it is necessary to prepare for combat missions. However, it is not necessary to repair all airfields in East China immediately (for example, northern Jiangsu can be suspended), but to first repair airfields related to the combat missions that will be carried out. The extent of its construction may also be limited to what is necessary for the performance of combat missions, so as to avoid excessive expenditure. According to the report of the Aviation Department of the East China Military Region Command, this kind of repair plan has been formulated and has been asked for instructions from the former committee of Sanye. Under the circumstance that the Air Force Command does not have the strength to examine and approve such a budget, it is proposed that the Air Force Command examine whether the airfield in a certain place should immediately start repairs, and that the repair expenses be examined by the logistics agency designated by the Mino Front Committee, and then report to the Military Commission for approval. (3) If the above handling methods are deemed appropriate, please notify all military regions and us to follow them, and inform the Central Finance Commission and other words. We agree with that approach. The East China Military Region and all military regions are requested to do the same, and the Central Finance Commission is requested to pay the indispensable part of the funds in this way and refuse to pay all the funds that can be reduced.
